Covid-19: A gripping novel inspired by real events

Dr. Samantha Parker locks herself inside a dark decaying morgue during a virus outbreak. Using a rope, she locks the heavy metal door behind her. Cold and alone, she enters the ugly reality of mass graves on Hart Island during her forensic pathology training. Dr. David Falkner, a medical examiner and attending physician, will soon open an unexpected door into Samantha's life as it spins into chaos. Her parents face a similar raging virus and the ensuing panic on board their luxury cruise near Santorini, Greece, and Samantha's boyfriend is about to meet the "bat woman," a real-life research scientist in a Biosafety Level 4 Lab where the global pandemic may have originated. Life, science, and God intersect, exposing blame and guilt, passion and pain, redemption and forgiveness. Medical facts and real events underpin the narrative propelled along a real-life COVID-19 timeline. Written by a breast cancer expert, Dr. Apple provides the reader confidence in knowing what really happened with COVID-19 and how the race for vaccines unfolds. The author's theological perspective is both intriguing and refreshing, and her own experiences of racism, tragedy, and courage contribute to the story.
